Time makes you bolder, even children get older and I'm getting older too

 Another post of old photos I found from 2021... These photos were taken at Geelong Beach on a cold day. I wore my patchwork leather skirt which I remember being delighted at finding in an opshop. This Afghan style coat was a favourite of mine and I used to wear it all the time. 


My mum and I explored the botanic gardens and strolled along the beach, enjoyed seafood pasta for lunch, rode a beautiful yellow carousel and a towering ferris wheel, and even took a train ride! I’m amazed we fit it all into one day!










I love how silly and sassy I was in these photos.



At times, gazing up at towering trees or the vastness of the stars makes us acutely aware of just how small we are. It's a reminder to enjoy life and not take it so seriously.

What lessons do you learn when you look back on old photos?

 Anyone fancy tagging along to lunch and a show? A little while ago, my sister, mum and I went into the city to watch the Shirley Valentine theatre show. Shirley Valentine is a classic movie from 1989 about a 42 year old woman who goes on a trip with her friend to Greece to escape her monotonous lifestyle and she discovers new adventure and independence. It is a funny and moving film that my mum, sister and I have watched many times over the years. Hence we were curious what the theatre show would be like. At the Athenaeum Theatre, Natalie Bassingthwaighte did an amazing job in the one woman show. For the show, my mum and I accidentally ended up both wearing floral dresses, which funnily enough perfectly matched the theme of the show. I also wore my giant butterfly clip in my hair. For lunch, my sister and I both ordered the same thing - bao buns. It was okay but not that nice. The fried zucchini flower salad was a bit more interesting. Before the day was finished, we browse...

Earlier in the year, my family and I visited a strawberry farm in Bacchus Marsh. My sister and I love visiting fruit farms and being able to pick our own fruit! The strawberries were much sweeter and tastier than the bland ones usually found in supermarkets. I was delighted to buy some apples too. They had no wax on which is basically unheard of these days. Next we visited a beautiful, old church. I love how the arches are reminiscent of Noah's Ark. Even the door is purposely designed and ornate. We ended the day with some waffles I made from scratch and ate many more strawberries. Title : Learn to Fly by the Foo Fighters. Please visit my: eBay Store Instagram

  Once I find a restaurant I love, I enjoy returning to it from time to time. La Tortelleria in Kensington, Melbourne is one of my favourite little spots to revisit, which you may remember from this post. On this sunny day, I wore my leopard dress (Tree of Life, via eBay), orange, leather sandals (Diana Ferrari) and beaded bag (secondhand market find).  I absolutely love the beef tacos with a consommé sauce. The sauce is what really makes it so memorable. Of course, I can't leave without having the Mexican flan. This is a cake I dream about! Are you a foodie like me? What is your favourite Mexican food to eat? X Title :  Waterloo  by ABBA.
